HC Deb 12 November 1979 vol 973 c403W
Mr. Bruce-Gardyne

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if, before proceeding with proposals for the establishments of a general teaching council, he will give careful consideration to the disruption of the teaching profession caused by the establishment of the Scottish General Teaching Council.

Dr. Boyson

My right hon. and learned Friend would naturally wish to benefit from the experience available in Scotland, and from the views of the Department's partners in the education service, before taking this important step.
